Hi All,
Being a recent X68000 acquirer and having got a SCSI2SD I need the SASI image on a real 5 1/2 floppy.
So basically this part of the FAQ.
- Download the SASI boot disk from the above URL (SxSI V5 with DMA patch Translated by Eidis)
- write it to 5.25 1.2MB floppy using XFloppy 1.1 in Windows 98 (or find a friend that can create this boot floppy for you)
Happy to pay someone to send me a the floppy, I'm based in the UK.
Regards
Reprofactory sells them. (France)

Can vouch for them as well. That's where I got my disk to kickstart the system.
Yup, I got a master disk from them too. Shipping was reasonably fast as well (considering global delays right now).
Great, thank you people!, ordering now
Here's another option which worked for me.
I've got a 486 PC running Win95. I was able to take the floppy drive out of my X68000 and connect it as floppy b: on my 486. I then used xfloppy (link below) to write the disk using the drive that would read it when put back into the X68000. A bit complicated, but if you have the extra PC around and want to save some bucks and time. :) https://nfggames.com/X68000/index.php/PC_Tools/Disk/ (https://nfggames.com/X68000/index.php/PC_Tools/Disk/)
